Rebels dou By JERRY HURD The largest crowd of the season showed up to cheer the hometown Castlegar Jr. Rebels.on to a 7-1 victory over the ‘Trail Jr. Smoke Eaters. The loss was only Trail's third of the season. The Rebels have previously had competitive games with the Jr. Smoke Eaters with losses of 5-4, 6-5 and 8-4. The encouragement of the fans got the Rebels fired up from the time they stepped on to the ice until the final whistle. The rough hard-hitting game kept referee Mas Fujibayashi busy during the first five minutes of play. A total of 12 penalties were called on the Rebels during the first period to the Smokies’ six. The Rebels did a- great job of penalty killing, as they outshot the Jr. Smoke Eaters 10-7. Two goals were scored in the_first period, both coming from the Castlegar Rebels. The first goal came from Dave Terhune at the 15:34 mark. Terhune was left standing alone in front of the net when he received a pass and fired it between the legs of ies” Itender Bob- Gardiner. Just three minutes later, Ken Hoodikoff scored a short-handed goal with a'long shot from the blueline. The second period eased the duties of the referee as a total of only eight penalties were called — five of them to the Smokies. The Rebels took advantage of the power plays. Kelly Hurd scored the first power play goal at the 6:42 mark while ‘Terhune scored his.second goal of the evening, also on the power play. The second: period ended 5-0 for the Rebels with the fifth marker coming from John Obetkoff. The Rebels outshot the Jr. Smoke Eaters 12-5 during the second period.

Dill had three goals Thursday and Jack Patrick two when the Alberta team won 7-4 over a team from St. Moritz. RETIREMENT CONSIDERED HALIFAX (CP) — Bill Carroll, 26, says he will retire from hockey rather than remain with Nova — Scotia Oilers of the American Hockey League after playing the last few weeks for the NHL champion Edmonton Oilers. “I feel I've had enough and it’s time to move on to something else,” said the centre who has played on “If T'm traded to a team that has an interest in me for the NHL, fine,” said Carroll. “If not, I'm not interested. I don’t feel I should be playing in this league.” TORNADOS MOVING TORONTO (CP) — Toronto Tornados’ move to Pensacola, Fla., announced earlier this week by owner Ted Stepien, was unanimously approved Friday by Conti: ketball A club owners.

FILE GRIEVANCE NEW YORK (AP) — New York Yankees filed a grievance against Don Baylor, contending the veteran designated hitter has effectively waived his no-trade clause by asking to be traded to Chicago White Sox, says a published report. ‘The New York Times says the Yankees, who have been trying for two months to trade Baylor to the White Sox, acknowledge Baylor's contract contains a ~~ elause that requires his “express written consent” toa “specific assignment”. But the Yankees contend Baylor's requests this year to be traded constituted a waiver of his no-trade clause. COMMUNITY NEWS > John Charters ...- Reflections - & recollections PAULA PRYCE TELLS OF LIFE IN BOLIVIA Last August Paula Pryce, an art and drama student, 1983 Miss Castlegar and of Marg and Colin Pryce, joined Canada World Youth. In October she left for Bolivia. For the interest of the Castlegar hosts of two other Canada World Youth groups, as well as for the thoughtful consideration of all Canadians as we move into the year 1986, I offer some excerpts from the letters of another young Canadian on life in a very different compartment of spaceship earth. The letters start with Paula’s experience and impressions of farm life in Prince Edward Island where the group started work, then passage through Halifax, Quebec and Montreal with her Bolivian counterparts enroute to South America. Her voluminous letters (who says modern young people don't write) give a different and widely varied view of wildly different landscapes, culture, weather, livin itions, and human bili hii think about in the relative comfort of 1986 in Castlegar. We leave Paula to tell it herself. EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) — Tony Franklin kicked four field goals and Andre Tippett, Don Black- mon and Garin Veris led a defence that forced four turnovers Saturday as New England Patriots beat New York Jets 26-14 to move into the second round of the National Football League playoffs. = Ten of New England's points in the American Foot- ball Conference wild-card. game came during a 15- second span in the third quarter. when the Pats extended a 13-7 halftime lead ‘to 23-7 on a Franklin field goal and Johnny Rembert's 15-yard touchdown return of Johnny Hector’s fumble on the ensuing kickoff. That was typical of the way the Jets self-destructed as Veris, a rookie defensive end who had three sacks, and linebackers Tippett and Blackmon, who each had a sack, constantly harried quarterbacks Ken O'Brien and Pat Ryan. The Patriots moved into a second-round AFC. playoff game against Los Angeles Raiders at Los Angeles next Sunday. The Jets had two first-half on the injured list, was also beated on a 36-yard touch- down connection from Tony Eason to Stanley Morgan. And Franklin's fourth field goal, a 26-yarder, came after Veris. intercepted a pass tipped by Tippett and ret- urned it 21 yards to the Jets 12, where he fumbled and teammate Steve Nelson re- covered. Soviets By ALAN ADAMS QUEBEC (CP) — Quebec Nordiques can't afford to get into a shootout with their Central Red Army opponents if the National Hockey Leag- ue team wants to beat the touring Soviets, coach Michel Bergeron warned Saturday. “I think they are a little stronger on offence than we are,” Bergeron said in ant- icipation of tonight's matchup between the Nordiques and the Soviet club. “They have a good skating team and one thing for sure, we will have to skate against the Rus- sians.” The Jets made things feasonably close following those quick 10 points, moving- the ball 57 yards in 10 plays to cut the New England lead to 23-14 behind Ryan, who came in after O'Brien went out with a concussion. Ryan's 12-yard scoring pass to Mic- key Shuler capped the drive. But Franklin's fourth kick, with 3:13 left, sealed the Patriots ground Jets game. Eason, who hit the big plays all day, finished with 12 completions in 16 attempts for 179 yards as New Eng- land won the rubber game of their three meetings with New York. O’Brién went out after completing 13 of 17 for 149 yards, and Ryan complet- ed 10 out of 16 throws for 84 yards. playing Quebec Central Red Army, a defending Soviet National League champions who have won 28 of 29 championships since the league began in 1947, hasn't had any trouble the with either of the NHL opponents it's faced so far on its 10-game, 10-city exhibit- ion tour.

Bergeron watched the Red Army frustrate the Oilers’ explosive offence and skid the Nordiques will study a film of the game to help spot the Soviet weak points. “I am sure it will be a tough game,” Bergeron said. “I think it is more than an exhibition game. “There is more at stake. I think we will be ready. I hope so because I want to make a game of it.” The Nordiques lost 3-0 to a touring Soviet all-star team in 1982 and Bergeron rem- embers the game well be- cause he also lost the services of his best defenceman at the time, Mario Marois. drives killed by = a fumble by Freeman McNeil and an O'Brien pass that was picked off by Fred Marion.

Most of the remaining flight was-in-cloud, but a half hour before La Paz, we emerged to discover the “Oriental Andes.” My God, I have never seen anything like it. I will never be able to describe in words and my poor photography cannot capture the essence cf what “Andes” really means. They are mountains so humungous that they remind you of an atomic explosion. Needless to say, this is where the infamous La Paz Airport is nestled. The city is literally cradled in the arms of these monolithic giants. How superb a setting!

After 15 minutes, I felt quite stoned but still great. Here I was at 4200 metres — that’s 4.2 km up! — and I only felt drunk. We travelled through “the Alto” (upper La Paz) and down into the main part of the city. La Paz is absolutely full of character. There is beautiful political graffiti every- where, overhanging balconies, cobblestone streets, garbage and streetsellers at every corner. Mud brick houses and Spanish plaster (no stores to speak of), but a magnificent market which comes to full life an hour or: so before curfew (12 midnight).
